4Cry"ing" out for an update!

Posted: 05/12/2007

Finished the game after a few days on the hardest setting and finished with a smile on my face. Yes the ending sucks because they want the second in the chapter to come along soon, but what a visually jaw dropping experience, great aliens, AI and story. Down to the negatives - My rig is greater than all the reccommended specs using a E6850 and 8800 ultra overclocked GPU and I still cant play it on High settings, never mind Very High, What do you need to run this game an MAX "NASA's" computer or something, very jerky on high I should be getting great frame rates but looks like the software needs an urgent patch/update, very disapointing seen as my rig is over 2K's worth of machine and I cant play it on high settings..... Not cool..But over all when this game has been patched to hell and back will look and play great.Fingers crossd anyway

This in no certain terms is an extremely impressive game, but it's not with out its major early issues. Im running a top spec pc , including a 8800GTX OC GPU,C2D E6700, Vista, 2gb Dominator Ram and a BFG Physx card and it took me over 1 hour to make it run slightly stable on "VISTA" this is getting more and more frustrating as time goes on and the game patches released to date still DO NOT FIX THE BUGS... This game should have never been released with the ammount of bugs it contains.But in sure the benifits out way the negatives once Nvidia and Ubisoft has sorted out the driver issues this game will only get better... the environment, graphics, story and game play are awsome. if you don't have a Physx card already this game will change your mind to buy one, once the card is installed it takes the game play and visuals to another level.....Not to mention the free level thats unlocked when the system recognises you have a Physx PPU installed.A great game if and when they sort out all the problems with the software...... Hurry up and get to grips with this Ubisoft and Nvidia...

What a Monster of a game.They wernt kidding about the reccomended specs, im running a C2D E6700, Vista Premium, 8800GTX Over Clocked and 2Gb of 800mhz Dominator Ram and just about does the job on highest settings....it does look great though if your after DX10 eye candy, shame they never took advantage of the Ageia Physx engine on this game it would have been even better...Do buy this game:- if you have a Powerfull PC and love your graphics - (great story and fab game play)

Dont buy this game:- if you dont have the internet or an old chugger of a machine. Not a very long game 12 levels
